Thats a ripper of a cannon dude. You just can't go past both its simplicity and great amounts of power. 2 hands thumbs up and a job well done. Again..... Haha.

Well not to cheap thats all I can say,the valve was the killer in price.$200 ontop of build price which was about...$50 or so excluding valve cost.

And the simple gun is often the best gun and in fact I'am in the process of making an old-school OVer-Under sprinkler gun.Ahh the simple life.

What you think of the name?Elinor,classy I recon and Gone In 60 Seconds had a bit of a influence on the name.
